Abstract

MATHEUS, Tiago Corbisier. For health policy in a private institution of college education. Vínculo [online]. 2011, vol.8, n.2, pp.37-44. ISSN 1806-2490.

The present work aims at exposing the policies and challenges faced in a psychological health care program for students in a private institution of college education in São Paulo, which offers graduation and post-graduation programs for professionals willing to take high positions in the governmental and corporate fields. The psychological health care actions happen in two fronts: a) emergency counseling focused on individual counseling outside of the college environment, aimed at identifying issues and conflicts faced by the student during his/her graduation program and thinking up possible outcomes; b) preventive action aimed at improving communication among institutional agents, which allows conflict exposition and, as a result, offers better conditions of symbolization. The development of this program makes it possible to analyze the tensions faced by an institution which is committed to meeting the market demands as well as fulfilling its ethical commitment to offer critical and reflexive education to young professionals who will take part in transforming Brazilian reality, perspectives which don’t always converge. The young people who look for this counseling program are facing the turbulence of their subjective journey and are also symptoms of the institution and of the social environment that surrounds it
